The Boys

Well, we've had Drew home for a little over a week. We are starting to settle into a little routine.  Drew eats every 2-3 hours. We are mostly nursing with an occasional bottle feed.  We're not sure how much our little buddy weighs, but he is growing for sure. He'll get weighed later this week. We are already retiring several preemie outfits....mostly for the length. Drew is tall and lean...not as chunky as baby Sam. :) Sam is really getting better and better at knowing how gentle to be with his brother.  The night feedings haven't woken big brother, whose room is just across the hall from Drew's room. Nick and I are getting used to the interrupted sleep. We've been going to bed shortly after Sam lately...then up @11 or 12, again @2 or 3, and lastly @5 or 6. Most of the time it's just me getting up, but Nick is wonderful to help with diaper changes and keeping Drew quiet until I can get to him. Most days I am able to sneak a nap in, but the days go by so quickly it isn't always possible. It feels so natural having Drew here with us. It's hard to imagine how life was before he arrived.  We are so blessed!
